I believe they recognize that times are changing with respect to supplying raw data. They probably feel a need to reinvent themselves. It sounds as if you would prefer tables with just the earnings data, omitting the price/volume stuff. Maybe a letter to the editor is in order? Can you not find the info you seek in WSJ or IBD? (ie, is the barrons data not only stale, but redundant?) Isn't it possible that a spreadsheet can grab the data from the web and display the items you find of interest in a concise form on your PDA? I'm not a trader- I read barrons for entertainment. Yes- that makes me a odd fellow. <g> And I don't own a PDA.

...I guess they see the trend of hard facts being provided online (WAP, UMTS...) and they want to corner the (future)core customer base - morning visit to the toilet etc; -. Those readers dont look for latest earnings at that early morning hour (g) ... not in THAT place anyhow ... Same argument for the sandy beach readers - "I want to read about the latest sex change operation on WS, let the machines do the rest -. IOW a decisive move in the yellow direction?... dj
